3. Black Wire: This wire is connected to the neutral phase of the motor. It's the third wire that carries the motor current.
ESC Simonk 30A
The Simonk 30A Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) is designed to drive the A2212 1400KV BLDC motor. It has a standard 4-wire interface for connection to the flight controller.
ESC Pins:
1. Signal (S) Pin: This pin carries the PWM signal from the flight controller to control the motor speed.
2. Positive (V+) Pin: This pin is connected to the positive terminal of the power source (battery).
3. Negative (V-) Pin: This pin is connected to the negative terminal of the power source (battery).
4. Ground (GND) Pin: This pin is connected to the ground or negative terminal of the power source (battery) and serves as a reference point for the ESC.
Connection Structure:
To connect the motor to the ESC and the flight controller, follow these steps:
Step 1: Connect the Motor to the ESC
Connect the Yellow Wire from the motor to the M1 or Motor+ terminal on the ESC.
Connect the Blue Wire from the motor to the M2 or Motor- terminal on the ESC.
Connect the Black Wire from the motor to the M3 or MotorN terminal on the ESC.
Step 2: Connect the ESC to the Flight Controller
Connect the Signal (S) Pin from the ESC to the corresponding Motor output pin on the flight controller.
Connect the Positive (V+) Pin from the ESC to the V+ terminal on the power source (battery).
Connect the Negative (V-) Pin from the ESC to the V- terminal on the power source (battery).
Connect the Ground (GND) Pin from the ESC to the GND terminal on the power source (battery) and the flight controller.
Important Notes:
Ensure proper polarity when connecting the ESC to the power source (battery) to avoid damage.
Double-check the connection between the motor and ESC to ensure correct phase wiring.
Consult the flight controller's documentation for specific motor output pins and connection guidelines.
By following this pinout and connection guide, you can successfully connect the A2212 1400KV BLDC motor, Simonk 30A ESC, and 1045 propellers to your RC drone's flight controller.
